Re: Pacers/OKC POSTGAME THREAD

I hope we are able to get some kind of offense off the bench at the deadline, otherwise we will probably lose in the first round. Mahinmi and Hans I guess can stick, but we need a player who can consistently score 10 points off the bench a night.

Re: Pacers/OKC POSTGAME THREAD

I'll keep saying that when (and if) DJ starts playing like he has shown that he can (ie. not terrible), this bench will prove that it's much better than last year's.

Also, I don't think that we will lose in the first round with Danny Granger. But time will tell, as always

Just like people are giving the Lakers until the deadline to mesh, I guess we should give the bench until the deadline to mesh. If not, we can make some moves and hopefully be able to make a run late in the year.

Re: Pacers/OKC POSTGAME THREAD

I'm OK with the bench. I'm not OK with Hansbrough and Augustin. Either Ian or Miles needs to start playing the backup 4 or the Pacers need a trade ASAP for a backup big. In any case they need a new backup PG.

Re: Pacers/OKC POSTGAME THREAD

Ok, I finally saw the Westbrook rejection. I just...don't want to talk about it.

Yeah, it was bad. But I think he had no idea Westbrook was coming. I doubt there's a player in this league that could have been strong enough to dunk it through that block. Westbrook was making "big man" plays all game anyway. Several times he actually was successfully boxing out a Pacers big letting his big men get the rebound. And he kept a number of 50/50 rebounds alive that normally Hibbert or West would secure.
